Artificial Intelligence Neural Networks

Yet another research area in AI, neural networks, is inspired from the natural neural network of human nervous system. What are Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)? The inventor of the first neurocomputer, Dr. Robert Hecht-Nielsen, defines a neural network as The idea of ANNs is based on the belief that working of human brain by making the right connections, can be imitated using silicon and wires as living neurons and dendrites. The human brain is composed of 100 billion nerve cells called neurons. They are connected to other thousand cells by Axons. Stimuli from external environment or inputs from sensory organs are accepted by dendrites. These inputs create electric impulses, which quickly travel through the neural network.
